Rufus Wainwright, Jorn Weisbrodt star in GAP ad

“There was one measly paparazzi,” the Canadian-by-way-of-Wilde says now in an interview about his nuptials in Montauk, last summer. “I was,” he sniffs, “hoping for at least two.”

Adding tabloid insult to wedding injury, he told the New York Times in an interview the other day? When the singer and his bethrothed, Jorn Weisbrodt, headed to Big Sur, in California, just a little later, for their honeymoon, and wound up having a bird’s-eye of another knot-tie. This one, Princess Diaries-style! “She (Hathaway) had two choppers!” Wainwright no-fairs. (The Times was quick to note that Rufus used “a more colourful term” than “she” in that, um, particular quote!)

Not sure if choppers can be expressly promised at an event, happening in Toronto, Tuesday, that further fetes the newly marrieds. Chunky scarves of varying rainbow colours can definitely be arranged, though! Destination: GAP, on Bloor Street. The raison d’etre: a holiday-ish shopping shindig that, in part, is a celebration of the store’s ’tis-season holiday campaign, showing love in every shade. Rufus and Jorn are among those featured in the far-and-wide campaign, which also features, among others, yet another Canadian, Michael J. Fox, with wife Tracy Pollan, Jack Houston with his dog (man’s best friend, Orso), and rapper Nas, up-close-and-parental with his dad, blues musician Olu Dara.

Gap is putting on the event here with the Y-chromosomed website, shedoesthecity.com, and besides holiday goodies, they also promise an in-store-band, mini-manis and designer donuts (really, they do!) Rufus and Jorn, who are nomads of the first order — they shuttle between Toronto and New York and where ever else — may also just show up.

Scene! Heard!

I see, I hear:
• Making the tapas-sports scene at the hot new Spanish resto, Patria, on King, a few nights ago: both Montreal Canadians star P.K. Subban and Jose Calderón from the Toronto Raptors.

• Just announced: Christian Louboutin — the man and the shoes — will be Toronto-bound next June when the Design Exchange hosts a red-hot new exhibition devoted to the man and the shoes.

• Back to their home away from home away from home: temporary Torontonians Claire Danes and Hugh Dancy spotted stocking up on the weekend at Pusateri’s, in Yorkville.

Ok, and yeah:When Daniel Boulud and David Chang hit the streets of Toronto they have “20-year-old Pappy Van Winkle bourbon shots.” They did, anyway, when they assembled at Grand Electric, on Queen West, according to a huge write-up about Toronto in the just-just-out issue of Food & Wine.

On this particular night — according to the mag — the two usual-suspect chefs got down and dirty at the cult-tacos spot, helping themselves to squid tostadas with lime mayonnaise and enough jalapenos to make Boulud, at least, “tear up.” (Chang, we gather, is made of sturdier stuff than that French crybaby!)

Food & Wine’s “Insider Guide to Toronto” falls, by the way, on the heels of another American glossy nod to Canada’s largest city – Bon Appetit, having spilled their own close-up last month. And besides the two new heavies in town — Boulud and Chang — the mag covers quite the track, giving shout-outs to not just newer places like Ursa and Edulis, but established players like Nota Bene, and also the fromage wonderland that is The Cheese Boutique.
